Aaron was skateboarding outside our apartment and Cambria was watching from our balcony. There are a few kids who are always skateboarding outside and so Aaron went out there and was showing off a little. :)
Cambria was invited to a birthday party at the blackfoot swimming pool. She always has to get use to the water when we go swimming, it is like she forgets that she likes to swim. There is a little slide in the kiddy pool and she was holding on to it and her hands slipped and her head went under water for the first time ever, and she didn't know what to do. She had only been under for 1 or 2 seconds and we pulled her up right away, but after that she wanted nothing to do with the slide. I know she will have to learn to go under water someday, but I have always been very careful about her not letting her head go under because I knew it would scare her. Cambria and the party guests eating cupcakes!We spent the night at the cabin on Friday, and we worked all day Saturday gathering rocks on the side of the road to put around the cabin to make it look better and keep weeds from growing. Cambria even had her own shovel and a little dump truck she was filling with dirt. She loves to be doing anything outside. She cries when we make her go inside. She always wants to take her "pa pack" when we go to the mountains. You can't really tell but her shirt says take a hike. I thought it was really cute. She also likes to have her glasses and hat like daddy.We spent Friday night watching movies and eating dutch oven chicken and potatoes, and peach cobbler (it was so good that I had seconds and thirds!) The cobbler was a cake mix with peaches and you are supposed to cook it with 7 up, but in this family we do everything with mountain dew! I thought it was pretty funny, and so good!On friday night when we were getting ready for bed we heard a growl from outside but it was too dark to see anything. The lady who has a cabin down the road from them said she had a bear scratching on her doors the other day, and also a big mountain lion walking around her property. So the next morning we went looking for tracks outside. We found some mountain lion tracks really close to the cabin on the road up. The picture of the footprint isn't very good and you can't tell how big it is, but it was about as big as a donut! It was so huge, and right by them we saw some baby prints too. It is kind of scary to think that bears and mountain lions get so close to the cabins, but we just have to be careful! Cambria likes to pretend she is driving the razor. I love this thing, I wish we could drive it around town.Here we are loading up the trailer on the 4 wheeler with rocks.Aaron has been very nervous about going back to school. When he was talking to Brody about starting school and Brody said he was getting new clothes and a backpack Aaron decided he needed new clothes too. So here is his first day of school picture with his new jeans!!!

tell Aaron he looks so cute in his first day of school outfit. Did you lay it out for him with his back pack, shoes, socks and shirt all on the floor to look like a person? haha
I should have. I loved laying my outfit out the night before. Did you teach Brody how to do that? You didn't post pictures of him coming home, and a video of him telling you what he has learned so far, and maybe long made up songs that make no sense...
yeah, he won't talk about school much... he just keeps saying he doesn't remember. I've gotten bits and pieces, but he did tell me he loves school, so that's a good sign. It just much be his age. He doesn't quite know how to express or talk about what he's doing at school. We tried doing a video and it ended up with all of us in tears and no progress made.
aw, the big boy is going to school! how exciting. tell him the going-to-school-jitters will go away soon. and to be nice to the other kids, or they wont like him.
charlie is in the background of one of the first pictures. tell him i'll be with him soon.
and cambria? there are no words. she is just so dang cute.
*Aaron sings- Oh back to school back to school to prove to dad that i'm not a fool...my lunch packed up...my shoes tied tight...I hope I don't get in a fight!
